(2) For the purposes of the definition of "Residential unit" in subsection (1) a flat used and occupied as the person's principal place of residence by a person referred to in the definition does not cease to be used and occupied by that person as the person's principal place of residence and for no other purpose by reason of the occupation under lease or licence for residential purposes of not more than one room in the flat. (2A) (Repealed) (3) For the purposes of the definition of "flat" in subsection (1), a building, or part of a building, used and occupied for residential purposes does not cease to be considered to be used and occupied as a separate dwelling merely because the building, or part of the building, is used for the purpose of another residential occupancy, if that residential occupancy may be disregarded for the purposes of the principal place of residence exemption under Schedule 1A. (4) Notes included in this Act do not form part of this Act. (5) (Repealed) 3A Special trust--meaning (1) For the purposes of this Act, a trust is a "special trust" if: (a) the trust property includes land, and (b) the trustee of the trust is the owner of the legal estate in the land, and (c) the trust is not a fixed trust. (2) For the purposes of this section, a trust is a "fixed trust" if the equitable estate in all of the land that is the subject of the trust is owned by a person or persons who are owners of the land for land tax purposes (disregarding section 25 (3)). (3) For the purpose of determining whether a trust is a fixed trust under this section, any equitable interest of the trustee as trustee of the trust is to be disregarded. (3A) If a trust satisfies the relevant criteria, the persons who are beneficiaries of the trust under the trust deed are taken to be owners of an equitable estate in the land that is the subject of the trust and, accordingly, the trust is taken to be a fixed trust. Under section 25, owners of an equitable estate or interest in land are liable in respect of land tax as if they were legal owners of the land. Owners of an equitable estate in land are treated as secondary taxpayers. (3B) For the purposes of this section, the "relevant criteria" are as follows: (a) the trust deed specifically provides that the beneficiaries of the trust: (i) are presently entitled to the income of the trust, subject only to payment of proper expenses by and of the trustee relating to the administration of the trust, and (ii) are presently entitled to the capital of the trust, and may require the trustee to wind up the trust and distribute the trust property or the net proceeds of the trust property, (b) the entitlements referred to in paragraph (a) cannot be removed, restricted or otherwise affected by the exercise of any discretion, or by a failure to exercise any discretion, conferred on a person by the trust deed, (c) if the trust is a unit trust: (i) there must be only one class of units issued, and (ii) the proportion of trust capital to which a unit holder is entitled on a winding up or surrender of units must be fixed and must be the same as the proportion of income of the trust to which the unit holder is entitled. (4) A trust is not a "special trust": (a) if the trust is solely a charitable trust, or (b) if clause 9 of Schedule 1A applies in respect of the land that is the subject of the trust, or (c) if the trust is a concessional trust, or (d) in relation to any land tax year in which it is a superannuation trust, or (e) if the trust is established by will, but only during the period ending on the expiration of 2 years after the date of death of the testator, or (f) in relation to any land tax year in which it is a family unit trust, as provided by Schedule 1AA. (5) For the purposes of this section, a trust is a "superannuation trust" in relation to a land tax year if: (a) the trust was established on or before 30 June in the year before that land tax year and, in relation to the year of income ending in that year, the trust is: (i) a complying superannuation fund (within the meaning of section 42 or 42A of the Commonwealth Act), or (ii) a complying approved deposit fund (within the meaning of section 43 of the Commonwealth Act), or (iii) a pooled superannuation trust (within the meaning of section 44 of the Commonwealth Act), or (b) the trust was established after 30 June in the year before that land tax year and, as at midnight on 31 December in that year, the trust is: (i) a regulated superannuation fund (within the meaning of the Commonwealth Act) or is taken to be a regulated superannuation fund under that Act, or (ii) an approved deposit fund (within the meaning of the Commonwealth Act), or (iii) a pooled superannuation trust (within the meaning of the Commonwealth Act). (6) Despite anything to the contrary in this section, a trust is taken to be a special trust in relation to a land tax year if the trust is classified as a special trust in respect of that land tax year under section 25A, and the classification has effect in respect of that land tax year. (7) In this section:"Commonwealth Act" means the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 of the Commonwealth. 3B Concessional trust--meaning (1) For the purposes of this Act, a trust is a "concessional trust" if: (a) the trust property includes land, and (b) each person who is a beneficiary of the trust is: (i) a person under the age of 18 years, or (ii) a person in respect of whom a guardianship order is in force under the Guardianship Act 1987, or (iii) a person in the target group within the meaning of the Disability Inclusion Act 2014. (2) For the purposes of this section, a person is a "beneficiary" of a trust if the person is a person, or a member of a class of persons: (a) in whose favour, by the terms of the trust, capital or income the subject of the trust may be applied: (i) in the event of the exercise of a power or discretion in favour of the person, or (ii) in the event that a discretion conferred under the trust is not exercised, or (b) entitled or permitted, under the terms of the trust, to use and occupy land that is the subject of the trust. (3) For the purposes of this Act: (a) a "special disability trust" (within the meaning of section 1209L of the Social Security Act 1991 of the Commonwealth or section 52ZZZW of the Veterans' Entitlements Act 1986 of the Commonwealth) is taken to be a concessional trust, and (b) the principal beneficiary of the special disability trust, as referred to in section 1209M of the Social Security Act 1991 of the Commonwealth or section 52ZZZWA of the Veterans' Entitlements Act 1986 of the Commonwealth, is taken to be a beneficiary of the trust. Part 2 – Administration

4 Taxation Administration Act 1996 This Act is to be read together with the Taxation Administration Act 1996 which makes provision for the administration and enforcement of this Act and other taxation laws.

4A-6 (Repealed) Part 3 – Land tax

7 Land tax on taxable value of land Land tax at such rates as may be fixed by any Act is to be levied and paid on the taxable value of all land situated in New South Wales which is owned by taxpayers (other than land which is exempt from taxation under this Act).

8 Date of ownership for purposes of land tax Land tax shall be charged on land as owned at midnight on the thirty-first day of December immediately preceding the year for which the land tax is levied.

In this section "year" means the period of twelve months commencing on the first day of January.

9 Taxable value (1) Land tax is payable by the owner of land on the taxable value of all the land owned by that owner which is not exempt from taxation under this Act. (2) The taxable value of that land is the total sum of the average value of each parcel of that land. (3) The average value of a parcel of land is to be calculated, as provided for by section 9AA, on the basis of the land value of the land. (4) The land value of land, in relation to a land tax year, is the value entered in the Register as the land value of the land as at 1 July in the previous year. (5) The fact that there is no land value entered in the Register on 31 December in a year as the land value of the land as at 1 July in that year does not prevent land tax being levied and charged and becoming payable for any following tax year once that land value is entered in the Register and the average value is ascertained. 9AA Average value of land (1) For the purposes of this Act, the "average value" of a parcel of land is the average of the land value of the land in relation to the year for which the average value is being ascertained (the "current land tax year") and the land value of the land in relation to the 2 preceding land tax years (the "preceding land tax years"). (2) If a land value adjustment is required in relation to a parcel in the current land tax year, the average value is to be determined before that land value adjustment is made (that is, on the basis of the land value without that land value adjustment) and, despite any other provision of this Act, the Valuation of Land Act 1916 or the Heritage Act 1977, the land value adjustment is to be applied, for the purpose of assessing land tax, to the average value of the land for that land tax year (and not the land value). (3) For the purposes of this section, a "land value adjustment" is: (a) a "land value reduction", being any reduction that is required to be made to the land value of land under this Act for the purpose of assessing land tax, or (b) (Repealed) (c) a "special allowance", being any allowance made in respect of the land value of land under Division 3 or 4 of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916. (4) In the case of a land value reduction, the land value adjustment is to be applied to the average value of land by applying any provision of this Act that specifies that the land value is to be reduced for the purpose of assessing land tax as if a reference to the land value of land were a reference to the average value of land. For example, the reductions provided for by sections 9A, 9BA, 9C, 9D, 10 (2), (2A) and (2C), 10Q (4) and 10R (3) will now apply to the average value of the land in a land tax year and not to the land value of the land. (5) (Repealed) (6) In the case of a special allowance, the land value adjustment is to be applied to the average value of the land by deducting the allowance from the average value. (7) If a parcel of land did not exist on 31 December immediately before either or both of the preceding land tax years, the average value of the land is taken to be: (a) if the parcel did exist on 31 December immediately before one of the preceding land tax years--the average of the land value of the land in relation to the current land tax year and the land value of the land in relation to the preceding land tax year immediately before which it did exist, or (b) in any other case--the land value of the land in relation to the current land tax year. (8) Subsection (2) applies in relation to an average value determined as provided for by subsection (7) in the same way as it applies to an average value determined as provided for by subsection (1). For example, if the newly created parcel qualifies for an allowance for subdivision under Division 4 of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916 in the current land tax year, the allowance would be applied to the average value calculated as provided for by subsection (7). (9) The average value of a parcel of land that is heritage-protected, and that was not heritage-protected on 31 December immediately before either or both of the preceding land tax years, is to be determined as provided for by subsection (7) (as if the parcel did not exist on the date or dates of 31 December on which it was not heritage-protected). (10) If the land value of land in relation to a land tax year is altered (whether as a result of being reascertained or on objection or appeal or for the correction of a clerical error or misdescription), the average value of the land must be reascertained on the basis of the altered land value. (11) If the average value of a parcel of land, after applying a land value adjustment, is less than zero, the average value of the parcel is taken to be zero. (12) For the purposes of this section, land is "heritage-protected" if it is either heritage restricted (within the meaning of section 14G of the Valuation of Land Act 1916) or the subject of a heritage valuation under Division 6 of Part 6 of the Heritage Act 1977, or both. 9A Concession for unutilised land value (1) This section applies to land if an unutilised value allowance (as ascertained under Division 3 of Part 7) is entered in the Register in respect of the land. (2) For the purpose of assessing land tax, the land value of the land is to be reduced by the unutilised value allowance. (3) However, if the land is sold or otherwise disposed of or it ceases to be used or occupied solely as the site of a single dwelling-house, a person whose liability to pay land tax in respect of the land has been assessed in accordance with this section must, within 1 month, inform the Chief Commissioner of the date on which the land was sold or otherwise disposed of or ceased to be so used or occupied. (4) Liability for land tax in respect of the year in which the land is sold, disposed of, or ceases to be used or occupied solely as the site of a single dwelling-house, and in each of the preceding years (up to a maximum of 4 preceding years) in which the person's liability to pay land tax was assessed in accordance with this section is to be reassessed as if subsection (2) had not applied to the land. (5) For the purposes of section 9 (3) (c) of the Taxation Administration Act 1996, any such reassessment is authorised to be made more than 5 years after the initial assessment. (6) Any such re-assessment is not a relevant land tax assessment for the purposes of section 35 (1) (b) of the Valuation of Land Act 1916 if it is based on the same land value or average value on which the original land tax assessment was based (before the reduction was made under subsection (2) of this section). (7) In this section, "single dwelling-house" has the same meaning as in Division 2 of Part 8 of Chapter 15 of the Local Government Act 1993. 9B Strata (1) Land tax, in the case of land subject to the Strata Schemes Development Act 2015, is to be levied and paid in respect of each lot comprised in a parcel. (2) For the purposes of this Act: (a) the land value of a lot comprised in a parcel is an amount that bears to the land value of the parcel (within the meaning of section 9 (4)) the same proportion as the unit entitlement of the lot bears to the aggregate unit entitlement, and (b) the average value of the lot is to be ascertained on the basis of the land value of the lot, as determined under paragraph (a). (3) Expressions used in this section have the same meanings as in the Strata Schemes Development Act 2015. 9BA Colliery holdings For the purpose of assessing land tax, the land value of land within a colliery holding (within the meaning of the Mining Act 1992) is to be reduced by the amount recorded in the Register in relation to each parcel as the amount by which the presence of coal in that parcel increases the value of that parcel.

9C Reduction in land value for flats on mixed development land or mixed use land (1) For the purpose of assessing land tax, the land value of mixed development land or mixed use land on which is situated a flat is to be reduced by the allowable proportion in relation to the flat. (2) The allowable proportion for a flat is as determined in accordance with whichever of the following paragraphs is applicable in the particular case: (a) if there is an apportionment factor entered in the Register in respect of that land value--the proportion determined in accordance with the following calculation: graphic

[Note: This is a graphic. It has not been processed by the Point in Time system and may not be accurate at the selected working date.]

(b) if paragraph (a) is not applicable--the proportion specified in an application for a reduction under this section as the fair and reasonable proportion of the land value of the land to be attributed to the flat, subject to subsections (2A) and (2AA). (c) (Repealed) (2A) If there is no apportionment factor entered in the Register in respect of the land value of the land, the Chief Commissioner may request the Valuer-General to determine the apportionment factor in respect of the land concerned. (2AA) If a request is made under subsection (2A): (a) the Valuer-General must determine the apportionment factor concerned and enter it in the Register, and (b) the allowable proportion for the flat must be determined in accordance with subsection (2) (a). (2AB) Apportionment factors for the purposes of this section are to be ascertained in accordance with Division 5 or Division 5A of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916, as appropriate to the land concerned. If such an apportionment factor is expressed as a percentage, the apportionment factor is, for the purposes of this section, to be converted to a fraction. Divisions 5 and 5A of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916 allow objections to be made against the amount of an apportionment factor. (2AC) (Repealed) (3) The reduction under this section applies only if the following requirements are satisfied: (a) the flat must be used and occupied by the owner of the land (or one of the owners) as his or her principal place of residence and for no other purpose, in which connection the use of the land for the purpose of one, but not more than one, residential occupancy other than that of the owner under lease or licence from the owner may be disregarded if it is an excluded residential occupancy (within the meaning of clause 4 of Schedule 1A), (b) (Repealed) (c) an owner of the land who occupies the flat must not be an owner merely because of being a trustee, (d) (Repealed) (e) the owner of the land must not be a company or company jointly with another person or other persons, except in either case a trustee company acting in its representative capacity. (4) For the purposes of determining whether a flat has been used and occupied by an owner of land as his or her principal place of residence under subsection (3) (a), clauses 8, 9 and 10 of Schedule 1A apply in respect of the flat, and that part of the land on which the flat is situated, in the same way as they apply in respect of land under the principal place of residence exemption. The effect of this provision is to deem a flat to be used and occupied by the owner of the land as a principal place of residence in certain circumstances, similar to the principal place of residence exemption. As a consequence, the land value of the mixed development land or mixed use land on which the flat is situated can be reduced by the allowable proportion under this section. (5) Unless the land concerned is land to which subsection (2) (a) applies, there is to be no reduction under this section unless: (a) application has been made for the reduction by all the owners of the land, specifying the proportion that in their opinion is a fair and reasonable proportion of the land value of the land to be attributed to the flat, and (b) the application is made in a form approved by the Chief Commissioner. (6) There is to be no reduction under this section if the building on the land, or the buildings on the land together, comprise 2 flats and the land is exempted from taxation under this Act. (6A) For avoidance of doubt, if a reduction in the land value of land is required under this section and the land is jointly owned, then, for the purposes of section 27 (3) (a), the individual interest of each of the owners of the land (including the owner who occupies the flat) is to be assessed on the basis of the land value of the land as reduced under this section. (7) This section does not apply to land to which section 9D or 21B applies. (8) In this section:"mixed development land" has the same meaning as in Division 5 of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916."mixed use land" has the same meaning as in Division 5A of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916. 9D Reduction in land value for single dwellings on mixed use land (1) For the purpose of assessing land tax, the land value of mixed use land on which is situated one single dwelling is to be reduced by the allowable proportion in relation to the dwelling. (2) The allowable proportion for the dwelling is to be determined in accordance with whichever of the following paragraphs is applicable in the particular case: (a) if there is an apportionment factor entered in the Register in respect of that land value--the proportion determined by deducting that apportionment factor from 1, (b) if paragraph (a) is not applicable--the proportion specified in an application for a reduction under this section as the fair and reasonable proportion of the land value of the land to be attributed to the dwelling, subject to subsections (3) and (4). (3) If there is no apportionment factor entered in the Register in respect of the land value of the land, the Chief Commissioner may request the Valuer-General to determine the apportionment factor in respect of the land concerned. (4) If a request is made under subsection (3): (a) the Valuer-General must determine the apportionment factor concerned and enter it in the Register, and (b) the allowable proportion for the dwelling must be determined in accordance with subsection (2) (a). (5) Apportionment factors for the purposes of this section are to be ascertained in accordance with Division 5A of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916. If such an apportionment factor is expressed as a percentage, the apportionment factor is, for the purposes of this section, to be converted to a fraction. Division 5A of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916 allows objections to be made against the amount of an apportionment factor. (6) The reduction under this section applies only if the following requirements are satisfied: (a) the single dwelling must be used and occupied by the owner of the land (or one of the owners) as his or her principal place of residence and for no other purpose, in which connection the use of the land for the purpose of one, but not more than one, residential occupancy other than that of the owner under lease or licence from the owner may be disregarded if it is an excluded residential occupancy (within the meaning of clause 4 of Schedule 1A), (b) an owner of the land who occupies the dwelling must not be an owner merely because of being a trustee, (c) the owner of the land must not be a company or company jointly with another person or other persons, except in either case a trustee company acting in its representative capacity. (6A) For the purposes of determining whether a single dwelling has been used and occupied by an owner of land as his or her principal place of residence under subsection (6) (a), clauses 8, 9 and 10 of Schedule 1A apply in respect of the single dwelling, and that part of the land on which the dwelling is situated, in the same way as they apply in respect of land under the principal place of residence exemption. The effect of this provision is to deem a single dwelling to be used and occupied by the owner of the land as a principal place of residence in certain circumstances, similar to the principal place of residence exemption. As a consequence, the land value of the mixed use land on which the single dwelling is situated can be reduced by the allowable proportion under this section. (7) Unless the land concerned is land to which subsection (2) (a) applies, there is to be no reduction under this section unless: (a) application has been made for the reduction by all the owners of the land, specifying the proportion that in their opinion is a fair and reasonable proportion of the land value of the land to be attributed to the dwelling, and (b) the application is made in a form approved by the Chief Commissioner. (8) For avoidance of doubt, if a reduction in the land value of land is required under this section and the land is jointly owned, then, for the purposes of section 27 (3) (a), the individual interest of each of the owners of the land (including the owner who occupies the dwelling) is to be assessed on the basis of the land value of the land as reduced under this section. (9) For the purposes of applying this section in respect of land on which there is a single dwelling and a residential occupancy other than that of the owner, the use of the land for the purpose of that other residential occupancy may be disregarded if that residential occupancy may be disregarded under the principal place of residence exemption under Schedule 1A. (10) This section does not apply to land to which section 21B applies. (11) In this section:"mixed use land" has the same meaning as in Division 5A of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916."single dwelling" has the same meaning as it has in Division 5A of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916. 10 Land exempted from tax (1) Except where otherwise expressly provided in this Act the following lands shall, subject to sections 10B, 10D, 10E, 10G and 10P, be exempted from taxation under this Act: (a) (Repealed) (b) land owned by any marketing board constituted under the Rice Marketing Act 1983, an agricultural industry services committee constituted by the Agricultural Industry Services Act 1998 or Local Land Services, (c) land owned by or in trust for a public health organisation within the meaning of the Health Services Act 1997, (c1) (Repealed) (d) land owned by or in trust for a charitable body, (e) land owned by or in trust for a religious society if the society, however formed or constituted, is carried on solely for religious, charitable or educational purposes, including the support of the aged or infirm clergy or ministers of the society, or their wives or widows or children, and not for pecuniary profit, (f) land owned by or in trust for, and used and occupied solely by: (i) an association of employers or employees registered as an organisation under Part IX of the Industrial Relations Act 1988 of the Commonwealth, (ii) (Repealed) (iii) an industrial organisation of employers or employees within the meaning of the Industrial Relations Act 1996, (iv) Unions NSW or any other association of bodies of a kind referred to in subparagraph (i) or (iii), or (v) a company in which shares representing not less than 85 per cent of the paid-up capital thereof are held by or in trust for a body referred to in subparagraph (i), (iii) or (iv), not being land of which any part is used for the purpose of a commercial activity open to members of the public, (f1) land owned by the New South Wales Aboriginal Land Council, a

[Note: This is a graphic. It has not been processed by the Point in Time system and may not be accurate at the selected working date.]

"R" = the reduction in land value."A" = the land value of the land before reduction."B" = the area of the land used and occupied as referred to in subsection (2)."C" = the total area of the land. (3A) If part only of a building is used and occupied as referred to in subsection (2), a proportion ("the allowable proportion") of the area of the land occupied by the building is to be included as part of the area of the land so used and occupied for the purpose of determining the value of "B" in the calculation under subsection (3). (3B) The allowable proportion under subsection (3A) is the proportion specified in an application under subsection (3C) in respect of the land, subject to subsections (3D)-(3F). (3C) Subsection (3A) does not apply unless application has been made to the Chief Commissioner by the owner of the land specifying the proportion that in the owner's opinion is a fair and reasonable proportion of the area of land occupied by the building to be attributed to use and occupation as referred to in subsection (2). The application must be in a form approved by the Chief Commissioner and be accompanied by such supporting information as the Chief Commissioner may request. (3D) Despite subsection (3B), the Chief Commissioner may request the Valuer-General to determine the reduced land value to be attributed, for the purposes of assessing land tax, to that part of the land that is used or occupied otherwise than as referred to in subsection (2). (3E) If a request is made under subsection (3D): (a) the Valuer-General must determine the reduced land value concerned, and (b) the reduced land value so determined is (subject to subsection (3F)) the value of the land for land tax purposes (instead of the value obtained under subsections (3) and (3A)), and is to be entered in the Register accordingly. (3F) Part 3 (Notices and objections) and Part 4 (Appeals to Land and Environment Court) of the Valuation of Land Act 1916 apply in respect of the reduced land value determined under subsection (3E) in the same way as those Parts apply in respect of a valuation under that Act. (4) For the purposes of this section, land does not cease to be used and occupied for the purpose of an aged care establishment or a retirement village merely because any building or improvement on the land is used or occupied for a purpose ancillary to that purpose.

(3) For the purposes of the application of section 9B to and in respect of a part of a building, or a building, deemed by this section to be a lot, the proportion that the unit entitlement of that lot bears to the aggregate unit entitlement is: (a) unless paragraph (b) applies, the proportion that the deemed owner's shareholding in respect of the lot bears to the total issued share capital of the company, or (b) if the Chief Commissioner is not satisfied as to the fairness and reasonableness of the proportion obtained in accordance with paragraph (a), the proportion arrived at by the Chief Commissioner on a redetermination in accordance with subsection (4). (4) The Chief Commissioner's redetermination is to be by reference to: (a) the proportion that the floor area of the deemed lot bears to the total floor area that is separately occupied, or capable of being used for separate occupation, in the building, or (b) in the case of an entitlement to occupy one of 2 or more buildings, the proportion that the floor area of the deemed lot bears to the total floor area that is separately occupied, or capable of being used for separate occupation, in all of those buildings.

The Crown, local council, county council or joint organisation is then not to be considered owner of the notional parcel. (3) If there are joint lessees, they are deemed to be joint owners of the notional parcel.

(6) This section does not apply to the following leases: (a) a lease or a lease of a class prescribed as exempt from this section, (b) a lease to which section 21 applies, (c) a lease of land from the Crown entered into or renewed before 1 January 1987 the terms of which relating to rental payable have not been varied since that date, (d) a lease of land from a local council, a county council or a joint organisation entered into or renewed before 1 January 1991 the terms of which relating to rental payable have not been varied since that date, (e) a lease of land in respect of which the Crown is liable for land tax (otherwise than under section 21CB), (f) a lease the term of which (including any term available under an option) is less than 12 months, (g) a lease in respect of which the lessee is the Crown, a local council, a county council or a joint organisation, (h) a lease of land on any part of the Island under the Lord Howe Island Act 1953. (7) This section is taken to have applied on and from 31 December 1988 to land owned by the Crown. 21CA Government lessor to notify lessee of land tax liability (1) A Government entity that enters into a lease of land owned by the Government entity must give the lessee a land tax disclosure statement, in writing, before the lessee enters into the lease. (2) A "land tax disclosure statement" is a statement that advises the lessee that the lessee will be liable for land tax in respect of the land during the term of the lease if land tax is payable on the land. (3) Without limiting subsection (2), a land tax disclosure statement may be made: (a) in the terms of the lease, or (b) as part of a disclosure statement for the lease that is given to the lessee before the lease is entered into. (4) A lessee enters into a lease when any of the following occurs (whichever happens first): (a) the lessee executes the lease, (b) the lessee enters into possession of the land under the lease, (c) the lessee begins to pay rent under the lease. (5) The renewal of a lease is considered to be entry into a new lease for the term of the renewal. (6) The onus is on a Government entity to establish that it gave a land tax disclosure statement to a lessee before the lessee entered into the lease. (7) A Government entity that enters into a lease of land owned by the Government entity and that fails to comply with this section is a "non-complying lessor" for any land tax on the land that becomes payable during the term of the lease. See section 21CB, which enables the Chief Commissioner to recover the land tax from the non-complying lessor if the lessee fails to pay the land tax. (8) This section applies to a lease only if the lessee under the lease is considered to be the owner of the land for land tax purposes because of section 21C. (9) In this section:"Government entity" means the Crown, a local council or any other entity not liable for land tax in respect of land it owns under section 21C. 21CB Recovery of land tax from non-complying lessor (1) If a lessee of land fails to pay a land tax amount in accordance with a notice of assessment issued by the Chief Commissioner, and there is a non-complying lessor for the land tax to which the assessment relates, the Chief Commissioner may serve a notice on the non-complying lessor notifying the lessor that: (a) the lessee has failed to pay the land tax amount, and (b) if the land tax amount is not paid by the date specified in the notice, the lessor will be liable for the land tax amount. (2) The date specified must be at least 21 days after service of the notice. (3) If the land tax amount is not paid by the date specified in the notice, the non-complying lessor is jointly and severally liable with the lessee to pay the land tax amount. (4) A non-complying lessor that is liable to pay a land tax amount under this section is entitled to be indemnified by the lessee for any payments made by the non-complying lessor to the Chief Commissioner to discharge liability for the land tax amount. (5) This section applies to a non-complying lessor that is a council despite section 741 of the Local Government Act 1993. (6) In this section:"land tax amount" means: (a) the amount of land tax that a lessee has been assessed as being liable to pay, as set out in a notice of assessment issued to the lessee, and (b) any interest or penalty tax payable in respect of that amount of tax. "lessee" includes a former lessee."non-complying lessor" has the meaning given by section 21CA. 21D Liability of lessees of leasehold strata lots (1) The lessee of land that is a leasehold strata lot is taken to be the owner of the leasehold strata lot for land tax purposes. The lessor of the lot is not to be considered to be the owner of the lot (unless the lessor is the lessee for the purposes of the Strata Schemes Development Act 2015). (2) Accordingly, the lessee is liable for any land tax payable in respect of the leasehold strata lot. (3) If there are joint lessees, they are deemed to be joint owners of the leasehold strata lot. (4) This section does not apply in respect of land to which section 21C applies (land owned by the Crown, a local council, a county council or a joint organisation). (5) In this section:"leasehold strata lot" means a lot in a leasehold strata scheme within the meaning of the Strata Schemes Development Act 2015."lessee", in relation to a leasehold strata lot, means an owner, within the meaning of the Strata Schemes Development Act 2015, of the lot."lessor" means a lessor within the meaning of the Strata Schemes Development Act 2015. 22 Mortgagees No deduction from the land value of any land shall be allowed in respect of any mortgage, or in respect of any unpaid purchase money; and a mortgagor or person who holds land subject to payment of any unpaid purchase money shall be assessed and liable for land tax as if he or she were the owner of an unencumbered estate.

23 Mortgages (1) A mortgagee or other person owning any estate or interest in land by way of security for money shall not be liable to land tax in respect of that mortgage, estate or interest: Provided that a mortgagee in possession of land, or any other person in possession of land by way of security for money shall, so long as such possession continues (though not to the exclusion of the liability of any other person) be deemed to be the owner of the land; and the mortgagor shall be deemed to be the primary taxpayer, and the mortgagee in possession to be the secondary taxpayer; and there shall be deducted from the land tax payable by the latter in respect of the land such amount (if any) as is necessary to prevent double taxation: Provided further that the foregoing proviso shall not apply: (a) to any mortgagee or person in possession whose possession began before the first day of November one thousand nine hundred and fifty-six until a period of three years has elapsed since that date, or (b) to any mortgagee or person in possession whose possession began on or after the first day of November one thousand nine hundred and fifty-six until a period of three years after he or she has entered into possession. (2) For the purposes of this section a mortgagee in possession shall include a mortgagee of land who is using such land, or who is in receipt of the rents or profits of such land, or who is in receipt of the income from any business carried on on such land, or who has appointed a receiver of the rents or profits of such land. (3) Nothing in this section affects section 46. 24 Trustees Any person in whom land is vested as a trustee shall be assessed and liable in respect of land tax as if he or she were beneficially entitled to the land:

Provided that where he or she is the owner of different lands in severalty, in trust for different persons who are not for any reason liable to be jointly assessed, the land tax so payable by the person shall be separately assessed in respect of each of those lands:

Provided also that when a trustee is also the beneficial owner of other land, he or she shall be separately assessed for that land, and for the land of which he or she is a trustee, unless for any reason he or she is liable to be jointly assessed independently of this section.

25 Equitable owner (1) The owner of any equitable estate or interest in land is liable in respect of land tax as if he or she were the legal owner of the estate or interest and land tax is to be assessed accordingly. (2) For that purpose: (a) the owner of the legal estate is taken to be the primary taxpayer and the owner of the equitable estate is taken to be the secondary taxpayer, and (b) there is to be deducted from the land tax payable by the secondary taxpayer in respect of the land such amount (if any) as is necessary to prevent double taxation. (3) This section does not apply in respect of land that is subject to a special trust. (4) This section is subject to the other provisions of this Act, in particular sections 25A and 26. 25A Classification of trust as special trust (1) If land is subject to a trust, the Chief Commissioner may classify the trust as a special trust for land tax purposes: (a) on the application of the trustee of the trust, or (b) on the Chief Commissioner's own motion. (2) Without limiting subsection (1) (b), the Chief Commissioner may classify a trust as a special trust in relation to a land tax year if any information required to be provided for that land tax year in relation to the trust, the land that is the subject of the trust or the beneficiaries of the trust is not provided as required under this Act. (3) A classification of a trust as a special trust that is made on the application of the trustee of a trust has effect in respect of any assessment of land tax liability (being an initial assessment of land tax liability) that is made on or after the date on which the trust is classified as a special trust, and does not affect any assessment of land tax liability made before that classification. (4) However, if an application for classification of a trust as a special trust is duly made by the trustee within the period allowed for the lodging of an objection to a notice of assessment of land tax liability (being a notice that relates to an initial assessment of land tax liability): (a) the classification of the trust as a special trust is taken to extend to the land tax year in respect of which that notice of assessment was issued, and (b) liability for that land tax is to be re-assessed accordingly. (5) The Chief Commissioner may revoke the classification of a trust as a special trust: (a) on the application of the trustee of the trust, or (b) on the Chief Commissioner's own motion. (6) The Chief Commissioner must revoke the classification of a trust as a special trust if the trust was classified as a special trust on the application of the trustee and an application for revocation is duly made by the trustee of the trust. (7) A revocation of a classification that is made on the application of the trustee of a trust has effect in respect of any assessment of land tax liability (being an initial assessment of land tax liability) that is made on or after the date on which the classification is revoked, and does not affect any assessment of land tax liability that was made before that revocation. (8) However, if an application for revocation is duly made by the trustee within the period allowed for the lodging of an objection to a notice of assessment of land tax liability (being an initial assessment of land tax liability), and the Chief Commissioner revokes the classification: (a) the revocation is taken to extend to the land tax year in respect of which that notice of assessment was issued, and (b) liability for land tax is to be re-assessed accordingly. (9) An application under this section is to be made in a form approved by the Chief Commissioner, and is to include such supporting information as the Chief Commissioner requires. (10) The Chief Commissioner may, despite anything to the contrary in this section: (a) reject any application under this section if it is made in contravention of the trust or trust deed that declares the trust concerned, and (b) reject any application for revocation of the classification of a trust as a special trust if any information required to be provided in relation to the trust, the land that is the subject of the trust or the beneficiaries of the trust has not been provided as required under this Act or the Taxation Administration Act 1996, and (c) assess or re-assess any land tax liability for land the subject of a trust that is not a fixed trust on the basis of the trust being a special trust, including land tax liability in respect of land tax years that commenced or occurred before the trust was classified as a special trust. (11) In this section:"fixed trust" has the meaning given by section 3A. 26 Purchaser and vendor (1) If land under the provisions of the Real Property Act 1900 is the subject of an agreement for sale that has not been completed by transfer of the land, the person who is registered as the proprietor of the land under the Real Property Act 1900 is taken, for the purposes of this Act, to be the owner of the land, to the exclusion of the liability of the purchaser. (2) If land, not being land under the provisions of the Real Property Act 1900, is the subject of an agreement for sale that has not been completed by conveyance of the land, the vendor of the land is taken, for the purposes of this Act, to be the owner of the land, to the exclusion of the liability of the purchaser. (3) However, the purchaser under the agreement for sale is taken, for the purposes of this Act, to be the owner of the land (to the exclusion of the liability of the registered proprietor or vendor) if under the terms of the agreement for sale: (a) the purchaser is entitled to receive, if the land is let to a tenant, any rents and profits derived from the tenancy, or (b) the purchaser is entitled to exclusive possession of the land and has taken possession of the land. (4) In this section:"agreement for sale" means an agreement for sale of land that is in force. 27 Joint owners (1) Joint owners of land shall be assessed and liable for land tax in accordance with the provisions of this section. (2) Joint owners (except those of them whose interests are exempt from taxation under this Act) are to be jointly assessed and liable in respect of the aggregate value of their proportionate interests in the land as if the land were owned by one person, without regard to their respective interests therein and without taking into account any land owned by any one of them in severalty or as joint owner with any other person (but by excluding the proportionate value of the interest of any joint owner so exempt). (2A) Where a joint owner of land is: (a) a trustee under a special trust to which the land is subject, or (b) a company classified under section 29 as a non-concessional company, no regard shall be had to the existence of the special trust or classification, as the case may be, in relation to the joint assessment and liability of the joint owners of the land as referred to in subsection (2), but regard shall be had to the existence of the special trust or classification, as the case may be, in relation to the separate assessment and liability of the joint owners as referred to in subsection (3). (3) Each joint owner of land shall in addition be separately assessed and liable in respect of: (a) his or her individual interest in the land (as if he or she were the owner of a part of the land in proportion to his or her interest), together with (b) any other land owned by him or her in severalty, and (c) his or her individual interests in any other land. (3A) (Repealed) (4) The joint owners in respect of their joint assessment shall be deemed to be the primary taxpayer, and each joint owner in respect of his or her separate assessment to be a secondary taxpayer; and from the land tax payable in respect of his or her interest in the land by each joint owner under subsection (3) there shall be deducted such amount (if any) as is necessary to prevent double taxation. (5) A joint owner of land who is not otherwise exempt from taxation under this Act is not exempt merely because the person is a joint owner with the Commonwealth, and the person is to be assessed and liable under this section accordingly (with the interest of the Commonwealth being treated as the interest of a joint owner exempt from taxation under this Act). See also Schedule 1AA in relation to family unit trusts.

28 (Repealed) 29 Related companies (1) For the purposes of this section, 2 companies are related to each other: (a) if one of those companies holds a controlling interest in the other company, or (b) if the same person holds, or the same persons together hold, a controlling interest in both companies, or (c) if: (i) more than one-half of the issued share capital of one of those companies (in this paragraph referred to as "the first company") is held by the other company (in this paragraph referred to as "the second company") together with the shareholders of the second company, and (ii) the proportion of the issued share capital of the second company held by shareholders of the first company is more than the difference between one-half and the proportion of the issued share capital of the first company held by the second company, or (d) if one of those companies is related to a company to which the other of those companies is related (including a company which is related to the other of those companies by reason of another application or other applications of this paragraph). (1A) A person holds, or persons together hold, a "controlling interest" in a company if: (a) the person, or the persons acting together, can control the composition of the board of directors of the company, or (b) the person is, or the persons acting together are, in a position to cast or control the casting of more than half of the maximum number of votes that might be cast at a general meeting of the company, or (c) the person holds, or the persons acting together hold, more than half of the issued share capital of the company. (2) For the purposes of determining whether companies are related, the following provisions apply: (a) companies may be related to each other notwithstanding that those companies do not own land in New South Wales, (a1) in subsections (1) (b) and (1A), "person" includes company, (b) a reference to the issued share capital of a company does not include a reference to any part of that issued share capital that carries no right to participate beyond a specified amount in a distribution of either profits or capital, (c) any shares held or power exercisable by a person or company as a trustee or a nominee for another person or company: (i) are to be treated as held or exercisable by that other person or company, if the trust is a fixed trust, and (ii) are to be treated as not held or exercisable by the trustee or nominee (whether or not the trust is a fixed trust), (d) any shares held or power exercisable by a person or company by virtue of the provisions of any debentures of another company, or of a trust deed for securing any issue of any such debentures, shall be disregarded, (e) any shares held or power exercisable by, or by a nominee for, any person or company (not being held or exercisable as mentioned in paragraph (d)) shall be treated as not held or exercisable by that person or company if the ordinary business of that person or company includes the lending of money and the shares are held or the power is exercisable only by way of security given for the purposes of a transaction entered into in the ordinary course of business in connection with the lending of money, not being a transaction entered into with a person associated with that person or company within the meaning of Division 2 of Part 1.2 of the Corporations Act 2001 of the Commonwealth, (f) without limiting by implication the circumstances in which the composition of a company's board of directors is to be taken to be controlled by a person or another company, the composition of a company's board of directors shall be taken to be controlled by a person or another company if that person or other company, by the exercise of some power exercisable whether with or without the consent or concurrence of any other person, can appoint or remove all or a majority of the directors. (3) The Chief Commissioner, in assessing the land tax payable by companies that are related to each other and that own land in New South Wales: (a) may assess: (i) all those companies separately, (ii) all those companies jointly, or (iii) any 2 or more of those companies jointly and the remainder separately, and (b) shall classify: (i) 1 of those companies, or, where a joint assessment is made, the companies jointly assessed, as a concessional company, and (ii) the remainder (if any) as non-concessional companies, and the companies shall be liable accordingly. (4) Where 2 or more companies are jointly assessed under subsection (3), those companies shall, for the purposes of that assessment, be deemed to be a single company. (5) Where 2 or more companies related to each other are liable for land tax (whether assessed separately or jointly), each company is liable jointly and severally to pay that tax. (6) Section 45 of the Taxation Administration Act 1996 applies to an amount payable under subsection (5). (7) If a company is classified as a non-concessional company, the company, and each of the companies that are related to it, are members of the same group. 30-32 (Repealed) 33 Deductions to prevent double taxation Where under this Act:

(a) any person is deemed to be the secondary taxpayer in respect of any land or interest, and (b) it is provided that there shall be deducted from the land tax payable by the secondary taxpayer, in respect of the land or interest, such amount (if any) as is necessary to prevent double taxation, the amount of the deduction (if any) shall be the lesser of the following amounts:

(i) the amount of land tax payable in respect of the land or interest by the secondary taxpayer, or (ii) the amount of land tax (if any) payable in respect of the land or interest by the primary taxpayer aggregated with the amount of land tax (if any) payable in respect of the land or interest by a precedent secondary taxpayer (if any): Provided that the secondary taxpayer shall be assessed and liable in respect of the land or interest, notwithstanding that the primary taxpayer is exempt from taxation in respect of the land or interest, or that there is no primary taxpayer in respect of the land or interest.

34 Meaning of land tax payable in respect of certain land (1) Where in this Act reference is made to the land tax payable by a person in respect of any land or interest, the reference is to so much of the whole land tax payable by the person as bears to the whole land tax payable by the person the proportion which the average value of the land or interest referred to bears to the average value of all the land (including any interest in land) owned by the person.

46 Remedy against other persons where taxpayer makes default (1) Where a taxpayer makes a default in the payment of land tax then, without in any way releasing him or her from his or her liability, the following provisions shall apply as long as the default continues: (a) If the land tax is payable in respect of land subject to any mortgage or lease or occupied by any person, then the mortgagee, lessee or occupier shall, upon being served with a notice by the Chief Commissioner requiring payment thereof, be responsible for the payment of the land tax, and it may be recovered from him or her as if he or she were the defaulting taxpayer. (b) All payments made under this section by a mortgagee, lessee or occupier shall be deemed to be made on behalf of the defaulting taxpayer: Provided that the responsibility of the lessee or occupier under this section shall only be to the extent of any rent or payments due by him or her to the taxpayer at the time of the demand for payment made by the Chief Commissioner, or from time to time accruing due thereafter.

(1E)-(1G) (Repealed) (2) The Chief Commissioner may release the land taxed, or any part of the land, from the charge imposed by subsection (1): (a) on payment of an amount the Chief Commissioner estimates to be not less than the proportion of land tax referable to the land or part, or (b) without payment of land tax if: (i) the Chief Commissioner is satisfied that there is no significant risk that the land tax for which the charge is imposed will not be paid, and (ii) a person who is or may become liable to pay the land tax is not in arrears in payment of any land tax.

52, 53 (Repealed) Part 7 – Valuation of land

Divisions 1-2A – (Repealed) Division 3 – Unutilised value allowances 62I Purpose and interpretation of Division (1) This Division applies for the purposes of section 9A (Concession for unutilised land value). (2) Expressions used in this Division have the same meanings as in Division 2 of Part 8 of Chapter 15 of the Local Government Act 1993, except to the extent that such a meaning would be inconsistent with the meaning given by this Act. 62J Land that is eligible to have unutilised value ascertained (1) Land is eligible to have an unutilised value allowance ascertained for its land value as at 1 July in a year if it satisfies the description in either of the following paragraphs as at midnight on 30 June in that year: (a) a parcel of land used or occupied solely as the site of a single dwelling-house and which is, under an environmental planning instrument, zoned or otherwise designated for use for the purposes of industry, commerce or the erection of residential flat buildings, (b) a parcel of land (which may comprise one or more lots or portions in a current plan within the meaning of the Conveyancing Act 1919) used or occupied solely as the site of a single dwelling-house and which is, under an environmental planning instrument, zoned or otherwise designated, so as to permit its subdivision for residential purposes, (c) a parcel of rural land (which may comprise one or more lots or portions in a current plan within the meaning of the Conveyancing Act 1919) which is zoned or otherwise designated under an environmental planning instrument so as to permit its use otherwise than as rural land, or its subdivision into two or more lots or portions, one or more of which has an area of less than 40 hectares. (2) (Repealed) 62K Unutilised value allowance to be ascertained on application of owner (1) The owner of land may apply to the Chief Commissioner for an unutilised value allowance to be ascertained for the land value of the land. The application must be in the form required by the Chief Commissioner and be accompanied by such supporting information as the Chief Commissioner may request. (1A) If satisfied that the land to which such an application relates satisfies the description in any of the paragraphs of section 62J (1), the Chief Commissioner must refer the application to the Valuer-General for determination of an unutilised value allowance. (2) The Valuer-General must then ascertain the allowance if the land is eligible to have that allowance ascertained. (3) An allowance ascertained by the Valuer-General under this Division is to be entered by the Valuer-General in the Register in respect of the land value to which it relates and is to be shown in any assessment to which it is applicable. 62L How unutilised value allowance is ascertained (1) The unutilised value allowance for a land value is the amount calculated by deducting from the land value of the land the value that the land would have if it could be used only as the site of a single dwelling-house. (2) However, no account is to be taken of any portion of the land which is in excess of that which is reasonably necessary to be occupied or used in conjunction with the single dwelling-house. 62M Unutilised value allowance to be reascertained in certain cases If the land value of land in respect of which an unutilised value allowance was ascertained is altered (whether as the result of being reascertained or on objection or appeal or for the correction of a clerical error or misdescription), the Valuer-General must reascertain an unutilised value allowance for that land value.

62N Unutilised value allowance can be objected to (1) An objection under Part 3 of the Valuation of Land Act 1916 may be made to an allowance ascertained under this Division as if it were a land value. (2) The right to object in respect of the land value of land includes the right to object on the ground that an allowance under this Division has not been ascertained for that land value. Division 4 – (Repealed) Division 4A – Tax threshold and premium rate threshold Sections 62TA and 62TB provide for the determination of the tax threshold for the land tax years from 1998 to 2004. In 2004, the tax threshold was abolished, with effect from the 2005 land tax year. Accordingly, there is no tax threshold for the 2005 land tax year. The tax threshold was then re-introduced, with effect from the 2006 land tax year. Sections 62TBA and 62TBB provide for the determination of the tax threshold for the 2006 land tax year and subsequent land tax years.

(Section 3A (4) (f))

1 (Repealed) 2 Family unit trust--special concession (1) A unit trust is a "family unit trust" in relation to the land tax year commencing on 1 January 2006 if, at midnight on 31 December 2005: (a) the trust property includes land (other than land that is exempt from taxation under this Act), and (b) the taxable value of that land does not exceed $1,000,000, and (c) the unit holders in the unit trust have fixed entitlements under the trust, and (d) the units in the unit trust are family-owned. (2) The unit trust continues to be a family unit trust in relation to each subsequent land tax year unless, before the commencement of that land tax year: (a) the trust acquires additional land and, as a result of that acquisition, the taxable value of the land that is the subject of the trust (and that is not exempt from taxation) exceeds $1,000,000 (with the taxable value of the land being the taxable value for the land tax year during which the acquisition was made), or (b) the unit holders cease to have fixed entitlements under the trust, or (c) the units in the unit trust cease to be family-owned. (3) If the unit trust ceases to be a family unit trust in relation to a subsequent land tax year, it cannot then become a family unit trust again (despite any changes in the land holdings or any other circumstances of the trust). (4) Unit holders in a unit trust have "fixed entitlements" under the trust if: (a) the unit holders are entitled to a fixed proportion of the income or capital distributions of the trust (if any are made) based on the number or class of units owned by them, and (b) the entitlements referred to in paragraph (a) cannot be removed, restricted or otherwise affected by the exercise of a discretion, or by a failure to exercise a discretion, conferred on any person under the trust. (5) Units in a unit trust are "family-owned" if: (a) in the case of a unit trust where the units are owned by one person: (i) the person is a non-trustee, or (ii) the person is a family trustee, or (b) in the case of a unit trust where the units are owned by 2 or more persons, not less than 95% of the units in the unit trust are owned by non-trustees or family trustees (or a combination of both) who are members of the same family. (6) A person is a member of the same family as another person if: (a) the person is married to the other person or is the de facto partner of the other person, or "De facto partner" is defined in section 21C of the Interpretation Act 1987. (b) the person is the child of the other person (whether by birth, adoption or marriage), or (c) the Chief Commissioner is satisfied, on the basis of any other relationship between the persons, that they can be considered to be members of the same family. (7) If a person owns a unit in a unit trust as a family trustee, the person is treated as a member of the same family as another person only if the beneficiaries of the trust of which the person is family trustee: (a) are members of the same family as the other person, or (b) if the other person is also a family trustee, are members of the same family as the beneficiaries of the trust of which the other person is family trustee. (8) In this clause:"family trustee" means a person who owns a unit in a unit trust as trustee of another trust which: (a) has only one beneficiary, who is a natural person, or (b) has 2 or more beneficiaries, who are all natural persons and members of the same family. "non-trustee" means a natural person who owns a unit in a unit trust otherwise than as trustee of another trust.

(2) This clause does not apply to unit holders in a unit trust which is a superannuation trust in relation to the land tax year (within the meaning of section 3A). Schedule 1A Principal place of residence exemption

(Section 10 (1) (r))

(2) For the purposes of this Schedule, a reference to the owner of land includes, if there are joint owners, any one or more of those joint owners. Part 2 – Principal place of residence exemption

2 Principal place of residence exemption (1) Land used and occupied by the owner as the principal place of residence of the owner of the land, and for no other purpose, is exempt from taxation under this Act, in respect of the year commencing 1 January 2005 or any succeeding year, if the land is: (a) a parcel of residential land, or (b) a strata lot or, subject to this Schedule, land comprised of 2 or more strata lots. (2) Land is not used and occupied as the principal place of residence of a person unless: (a) the land, and no other land, has been continuously used and occupied by the person for residential purposes and for no other purposes since 1 July in the year preceding the tax year in which land tax is levied, or (b) in any other case, the Chief Commissioner is satisfied that the land is used and occupied by the person as the person's principal place of residence. (3) If the owner of land is entitled to the exemption conferred by this Schedule, no other person is liable to be assessed for taxation under this Act in respect of the land during the period of the owner's entitlement to the exemption. (4) The exemption conferred by this Schedule is referred to as the "principal place of residence exemption". (5) The principal place of residence exemption is subject to the restrictions set out in Part 4. 3 Residential land--meaning (1) In this Schedule, "residential land" means land that is used and occupied for residential purposes and for no other purpose, that use and occupation being use and occupation of a building or buildings designed, constructed or adapted for residential purposes, other than a building or buildings: (a) comprised of strata lots or residential units, or (b) containing (out of the total of all rooms in the building or buildings) occupancies other than that of the owner, or (c) from any part of which income is derived. (2) Land does not cease to be used and occupied as provided by subclause (1) by reason of there being on that land any building or improvement that is used or occupied for a purpose ancillary to the purposes for which the building is, or the buildings are, designed, constructed or adapted. Clause 4 allows one residential occupancy to be disregarded in applying the principal place of residence exemption. Clause 5 allows the use of land for purposes ancillary to a business conducted at a different place to be disregarded in certain circumstances.

Part 3 – Concessions in application of principal place of residence exemption

4 Concession for land on which there is one other residential occupancy (1) For the purposes of the principal place of residence exemption, if a building or buildings used or occupied for residential purposes contains or contain a residential occupancy other than that of the owner, the use of the building or buildings for the purpose of that residential occupancy may be disregarded if: (a) the residential occupancy is an excluded residential occupancy, and (b) the building contains or buildings contain (out of a total of all rooms in the building or buildings) not more than one of those excluded residential occupancies (not including the occupancy of the owner). (2) For the purposes of this clause, each of the following residential occupancies is an "excluded residential occupancy": (a) one room, (b) one suite of rooms (not being a flat) each room of which all occupants of the suite are entitled to occupy, (c) one flat, (d) one suite of rooms (not being a flat) each room of which all occupants of the suite are entitled to occupy, and one room, (e) one flat and one room, (f) 2 rooms, each of which is separately occupied. (3) Accordingly, land does not cease to be residential land because there is on the land one, but not more than one, such excluded residential occupancy, even if income is derived from the residential occupancy. (4) If land is comprised of 2 or more lots or strata lots, the excluded residential occupancy must be located on a lot or strata lot that is also used and occupied by the owner of the land for residential purposes. 5 Concession for land used for incidental business purposes (1) For the purposes of the principal place of residence exemption, if land owned by a person is used and occupied by the owner primarily for residential purposes but not more than one room is used primarily for business purposes, the use of the land for the purpose of the business may be disregarded if the business is primarily conducted elsewhere. (2) Accordingly, land does not cease to be residential land because of the use of one room primarily for business purposes, even if income is derived from the use of the land for that purpose. (3) Nothing in this clause affects, or is affected by, clause 3. 6 Concession for unoccupied land intended to be owner's principal place of residence (1) An owner of unoccupied land is entitled to claim the land as his or her principal place of residence if the owner intends to use and occupy the land solely as his or her principal place of residence. In such a case, the owner is taken, for the purpose of the principal place of residence exemption, to use and occupy the unoccupied land as his or her principal place of residence. It is an offence under section 55 of the Taxation Administration Act 1996 to make a statement to a tax officer, or give information to a tax officer, orally or in writing, knowing that it is false or misleading in a material particular. (2) This clause does not apply unless: (a) the land is unoccupied because the owner intends to carry out, or is carrying out, building or other works necessary to facilitate his or her intended use and occupation of the land as a principal place of residence, and (b) if those building or other works have physically commenced on the land, no income has been derived from the use and occupation of the land since that commencement, and (c) the intended use and occupation of the land is not unlawful. (3) This clause applies in respect of the assessment of a person's ownership of land only in the period of: (a) 4 tax years immediately following the year in which the person became owner of the land, or (b) if, after the person became owner and before the building or other works physically commence, the land is used and occupied for residential purposes by another person--4 tax years immediately following the tax year in which the other person ceases to use and occupy the land for those purposes. (4) Without limiting subclause (3) (a): (a) this clause does not apply in respect of the assessment of a person's ownership of land in a period referred to in subclause (3) (b) unless the Chief Commissioner is satisfied that, by the end of the first of the 4 tax years concerned: (i) the building or other works will be, or have been, physically commenced, or (ii) significant steps will be, or have been, taken to enable those works to physically commence, and (b) if the building or other works are not physically commenced by the end of that tax year (or the Chief Commissioner is not satisfied that, by the end of that tax year, significant steps have been taken to enable those works to physically commence): (i) the principal place of residence exemption applying by operation of this clause to the land is taken not to have applied to the land in respect of that tax year (unless subclause (3) (a) applied to the assessment in that tax year), and (ii) land tax liability is to be assessed or reassessed accordingly. (5) If the principal place of residence exemption applies by operation of this clause to land not actually used and occupied by a person as his or her principal place of residence on a taxing date, that exemption is revoked if the person fails to actually use and occupy the land as his or her principal place of residence by the end of the period in which this clause applies in respect of the assessment of the person's ownership of the land and to continue to so use and occupy the land for at least 6 months. (6) The effect of the revocation is that the principal place of residence exemption is taken not to have applied to the land in respect of any tax year to which, but for the revocation, it would have applied. Land tax liability is to be assessed or reassessed accordingly. (6A) For the purposes of section 9 (3) (c) of the Taxation Administration Act 1996, any reassessment under this clause is authorised to be made more than 5 years after the initial assessment. (7) This clause does not apply in respect of land owned by a person if: (a) the person or any member of the person's family (within the meaning of clause 12) is entitled to have his or her actual use and occupation of other land taken into account under section 9C or 9D or under this Schedule, or (b) the person owns land outside New South Wales that is the principal place of residence of the person or a member of the person's family (within the meaning of clause 12), or (c) the land, or the land if combined with any adjoining land of which the person is an owner, is capable of having more than 2 residences or residential units lawfully built on it. (8) For the purposes of this clause:"unoccupied land" means land that is not being used or occupied for any purpose. 7 Concession for change to principal place of residence (1) If the Chief Commissioner is satisfied that, on a taxing date ("the relevant taxing date"): (a) a person is the owner of land ("the former residence") that was the principal place of residence of the person on the relevant taxing date or was the principal place of residence of the person on the preceding taxing date, and (b) the person is the owner of other land ("the new residence") that is being or is intended to be used and occupied by the person as his or her principal place of residence, both the former residence and the new residence are taken, for the purpose of the principal place of residence exemption, to be used and occupied by the person as the person's principal place of residence on the relevant taxing date. (2) This clause applies in respect of land owned by a person only if the Chief Commissioner is satisfied that: (a) the former residence has not been used or occupied except as the person's principal place of residence, and no income has been derived from the use or occupation of the residence, since the preceding 1 July, except: (i) income derived from an excluded residential occupancy (within the meaning of clause 4), or (ii) income derived under a lease or licence entered into by the purchaser under a contract for the sale of the former residence for a period pending completion of the sale, and (b) the person became the owner of the new residence within the period of 6 months before the relevant taxing date, and (c) since the person became owner of the new residence the new residence has not been used or occupied except: (i) as the person's principal place of residence, or (ii) by a tenant under a lease entered into by the previous owner. (d) (Repealed) (3) The principal place of residence exemption cannot be claimed for both a former residence and a new residence under this clause for more than one taxing date. (3A) A principal place of residence exemption that applies, by operation of this clause, to land not actually used and occupied by a person at the relevant taxing date is revoked if the person is not actually using and occupying the new residence as his or her principal place of residence by the next taxing date immediately following the relevant taxing date. (4) The effect of the revocation is that the principal place of residence exemption is taken not to have applied in respect of the tax year to which, but for the revocation, it would have applied. Land tax liability is to be assessed or reassessed accordingly. (5) (Repealed) 8 Concession for absences from former residence (1) A person is taken, for the purpose of the principal place of residence exemption, to continue to use and occupy land formerly used and occupied by the person as a principal place of residence (a "former residence"), after the person ceases to so use and occupy the former residence, if the Chief Commissioner is satisfied that: (a) the person used and occupied the former residence as a principal place of residence for a continuous period of at least 6 months, and (b) the person does not own any other land used and occupied by the person as a principal place of residence. (2) The maximum period for which a person may be taken, under this clause, to continue to use and occupy a former residence as a principal place of residence is 6 years starting at the end of the last period (of at least 6 months) during which the former residence was used and occupied by the person as a principal place of residence (not including any period for which the person may be taken, under clause 7 or this clause, to have used and occupied the former residence as a principal place of residence). (3) If the principal place of residence exemption applies to the former residence of a person by operation of this clause, the exemption ceases to have effect if the person is the owner of the former residence at the end of the 6-year period referred to in subclause (2) and fails: (a) to resume actual use and occupation of the residence as a principal place of residence by the end of that period, and (b) to continue that use and occupation for at least 6 months. (3A) The principal place of residence exemption also ceases to have effect if the land ceases to be capable of being used and occupied as a residence and remains incapable of being so used and occupied for a period exceeding 4 years. (4) Any period during which a person is in full time care is not to be counted toward the maximum period referred to in subclause (2). Accordingly, a person who is in full time care may continue to be taken to use and occupy his or her former residence as his or her principal place of residence during any period in which he or she is in full time care. (5) For the purposes of this clause, a person is in "full time care" during any period in which the person: (a) resides at a hospital or mental hospital as a patient of the hospital, or (b) resides at an aged care establishment (within the meaning of section 10R) while being provided with residential care, or respite care, or (c) resides with another person (a "carer") who is eligible for a carer payment under the Social Security Act 1991 of the Commonwealth because the carer provides care to the person. (6) This clause applies in respect of the assessment of a person's ownership of land in a tax year only if the Chief Commissioner is satisfied that no income has been derived from the use or occupation of the former residence in the preceding tax year, except as permitted by subclause (7). (7) Income may be derived from the use or occupation of the former residence in a tax year if: (a) the income is derived from a lease, licence or other arrangement under which a person has a right to occupy the former residence and the period for which any such right of occupation is conferred does not exceed a continuous period of 6 months, or a total period of 182 days, in the tax year, or (b) the income is derived from any arrangement under which a person occupies the former residence, but the income is no more than is reasonably required to cover council, water and energy rates and charges and maintenance costs of the owner in respect of the residence. (7A) For the purposes of subclause (7), each overnight stay counts as one day. (8) This clause is subject to clause 12 (which limits members of a family to one principal place of residence exemption). (9) In this clause:"hospital" means an institution at which relief is given to sick or injured people through the provision of care or treatment."mental hospital" means an institution conducted principally for the treatment of mentally ill persons, and includes a hospital within the meaning of the Mental Health Act 1990. 9 Concession on death of owner (1) If, immediately before the death of a person, the person was an owner of land and used and occupied the land as his or her principal place of residence, liability for land tax in respect of the land is to be assessed as if the person had not died and had continued to so use and occupy the land. (1A) (Repealed) (2) Subclause (1) operates only until whichever of the following happens first: (a) a period of 2 years expires after the date of the deceased person's death, (b) the land is transferred to any person (other than the deceased person's personal representative, or a beneficiary of the deceased person's estate). (3) The Chief Commissioner may extend (and further extend) the period of 2 years referred to in subclause (2) (a) if: (a) the land has not been leased to any person since the date of the deceased person's death, and (b) the land has not been transferred to any person (other than the deceased person's personal representative), and (c) the Chief Commissioner is satisfied that: (i) a person is using and occupying the land as his or her principal place of residence, and (ii) that person is likely to be a person in whom the deceased's interest in the land vests pursuant to the administration of the deceased's estate. (4) Such an extension or further extension by the Chief Commissioner can only be granted in writing and can be withdrawn by the Chief Commissioner at any time by notice in writing given to the deceased's personal representative. (5) For the purposes of this section, if the deceased is a registered proprietor under the Real Property Act 1900 in respect of his or her interest in the land, the deceased's interest in the land is taken to vest in another person when that other person is registered as the proprietor of that interest under that Act. 10 Concession for tenancy following death of owner (1) For the purposes of the principal place of residence exemption, if the owner of land dies and the land is used and occupied as the principal place of residence of: (a) a person using and occupying the land under a right of occupancy created by the will of that owner, or (b) a person (other than a tenant) who resided with that owner immediately before his or her death and who continues to use and occupy the land with the permission of the deceased person's personal representative, or of any other person, granted under a power or right conferred by the will of that owner or with the permission of any other person to whom the land is transferred following that death, then the person who so uses and occupies the land is taken to be the owner of the land, but only while that use and occupation continues. (2) A person who is taken to be the owner of land under this clause is taken to be the owner to the exclusion of any company that owns the land in its capacity as the deceased person's personal representative. 10A Concession for first home owners who purchase under shared equity arrangements (1) The principal place of residence exemption extends to land used and occupied as the principal place of residence of a natural person who owns the land, even if the land is jointly owned by a disqualified person, if: (a) the agreement or transfer under which the land was acquired by the natural person was eligible under a first home owner's duty concession scheme for a shared equity concession, and (b) an application in respect of the agreement or transfer under the relevant scheme is approved by the Chief Commissioner. (2) For the purposes of this clause, a "disqualified person" means: (a) a company, other than a trustee company acting in its representative capacity or a company acting in its capacity as trustee of a concessional trust, or (b) a person who is a trustee acting in the person's capacity as trustee of a special trust. Under clause 11, the principal place of residence exemption cannot be claimed in respect of land that is jointly owned by a disqualified person except in specified circumstances. This clause provides for a further exception to that general principle. (3) However, the principal place of residence exemption does not extend to a disqualified person or to the interest of a disqualified person in the land, and clause 2 (3) does not apply to the disqualified person. (4) Accordingly, a disqualified person who jointly owns the land is liable to be assessed for taxation under this Act in respect of the land, as provided for by section 27, exclusive of the interest of any joint owner who is exempt from taxation under the principal place of residence exemption or under clause 2 (3). (5) This clause ceases to apply in respect of land, and is taken never to have applied, if the Chief Commissioner revokes his or her approval under a first home owner's duty concession scheme of the application in respect of the agreement or transfer concerned. (6) This clause applies despite clause 11. (7) In this clause:"first home owner's duty concession scheme" means the First Home Buyers Assistance Scheme under Division 1 of Part 8 of Chapter 2 of the Duties Act 1997 or any of the predecessors to that scheme under that Act. 10AA Concession for home owners who purchase under approved shared equity schemes The principal place of residence exemption extends to land used and occupied as the principal place of residence of a natural person who owns the land, even if the land is jointly owned by any other person, if the land was acquired by the natural person under an approved shared equity scheme (within the meaning of the Duties Act 1997).

10B Concession for multiple-occupancy land (1) This clause applies if land owned by one person, or by 2 or more joint owners, is the site of a flat that is used and occupied by the owner, or by one of them, as a principal place of residence, and there is also situated on the land one or more other flats that are used, or adapted for use, as a separate occupation to that of the owner (not being an excluded residential occupancy that may be disregarded under clause 4). (2) Section 9C applies in respect of the land as if the land were mixed use land. (3) For the purposes of applying Division 5A of Part 1B of the Valuation of Land Act 1916 to the land, a reference in that Division to that part of the land that is occupied or used for non-residential purposes is to be read as a reference to that part of the land that is adapted for use as a separate occupation to that of the owner (and which is not an excluded residential occupancy that may be disregarded under clause 4). (4) This clause does not apply to land comprised of one or more strata lots. Part 4 – Restrictions

11 Exemption does not apply to land owned by companies and trustees (1) Land is not exempt from taxation under the principal place of residence exemption if: (a) the land is owned, or jointly owned, by a company, unless the land is owned or jointly owned by a trustee company acting in its representative capacity or a company acting in its capacity as trustee of a concessional trust, or (b) the owner of the land, or each of the joint owners, who use and occupy the land as a principal place of residence is an owner only by reason of being a trustee, or (c) the land is owned, or jointly owned, by a person who is a trustee acting in the person's capacity as trustee of a special trust. The expression "trustee company" (as referred to in subclause (1) (a)) is defined in section 3 (1). (2) For the purposes of the principal place of residence exemption, land that is owned by a company acting in its capacity as trustee of a concessional trust is taken to be used and occupied as the principal place of residence of the owner of the land only if the person, or one of the persons, who so uses and occupies the land is a person who is a beneficiary of the trust. (3) For the purposes of this clause, land that is a parcel of residential land or a lot in a freehold strata scheme under the Strata Schemes Development Act 2015 is owned by a company if: (a) the land is owned by a company, or (b) the land is owned on behalf of a company and is land of which a mortgagee or person (by way of security for money) is in possession, or (c) the land is owned by a trustee for or on behalf of a company, or (d) a company is a joint owner of the land with any other person. (4) For the purposes of this clause, land that is a lot in a leasehold strata scheme under the Strata Schemes Development Act 2015 is owned by a company if: (a) the lot is leased by a company, or (b) the lot is leased on behalf of a company and is land of which a mortgagee or person (by way of security for money) is in possession, or (c) the lot is leased by a trustee for or on behalf of a company, or (d) a company is jointly assessable in respect of the lot with any other person. (5) For the purposes of this clause, a person is a "beneficiary" of a trust if the person is a person, or a member of a class of persons: (a) in whose favour, by the terms of the trust, capital or income the subject of the trust may be applied: (i) in the event of the exercise of a power or discretion in favour of the person, or (ii) in the event that a discretion conferred under the trust is not exercised, or (b) entitled or permitted, under the terms of the trust, to use and occupy land that is the subject of the trust. (5A) To avoid doubt, land that is taken to be owned by more than one person under this Act is taken, for the purposes of this clause, to be jointly owned by them. See, for example, sections 20 and 25. (6) This clause does not prevent the principal place of residence exemption applying to land owned by a company if a provision of this Act deems a natural person to be the owner of the land, to the exclusion of the company. Section 20 provides for circumstances in which a life tenant is taken to be the owner of land, to the exclusion of another owner (including a company). Section 21A provides that a company title unit is not to be regarded as being owned by the company in which the relevant shares are held. Section 26 provides for circumstances in which a purchaser or vendor of land (including a company purchaser or vendor) is to be regarded as the owner of the land when the purchase is not complete.

See also clause 10 (2).

12 Only one principal place of residence for all members of same family (1) For the purposes of the principal place of residence exemption, only one place of residence may be treated as the principal place of residence of all members of the same family. (2) If members of a family own (whether jointly or separately) more than one residence used and occupied by any of them as a principal place of residence, the Chief Commissioner is to treat the one place of residence elected as the principal place of residence of the family as the principal place of residence of all members of the family in respect of a tax year. (3) Such an election is to be made, by or on behalf of the members of the family, in writing and must be lodged with the Chief Commissioner within the period for the lodging of objections under section 89 of the Taxation Administration Act 1996. (4) An election may be made, in respect of a tax year, by the end of the period allowed for the lodging of an objection to a notice of assessment of land tax liability (being an initial assessment of land tax liability) for that tax year. (5) If an election is not made, the Chief Commissioner is to treat the residence that has the highest land value for land tax purposes as the principal place of residence of all members of the family. (6) For the purposes of this clause, a "family" consists of the following: (a) a person and his or her spouse (if any), (b) any dependent child or dependent step-child of the person and his or her spouse (or of either of them) who ordinarily resides with the person or his or her spouse. (7) A person is the "spouse" of another person if: (a) they are legally married, or (b) the person is the de facto partner of the other person. (8) However, if the Chief Commissioner is satisfied that a person: (a) is legally married to or is in a registered relationship or an interstate registered relationship, within the meaning of the Relationships Register Act 2010, with another person but not cohabiting with that other person, and (b) has no intention of resuming cohabitation with that other person, the person is not to be regarded as the spouse of that other person and if a dependent child or dependent step-child of the person has a joint interest in the principal place of residence of the spouse, that interest is to be disregarded. (9) A person who is the child or step-child of another person is a "dependent child" or a "dependent step-child" if the person is under 18 years of age and is not legally married. (10) Nothing in this clause prevents more than one residence from being treated as the principal place of residence of members of a family under clause 7 (Concession for sale of former principal place of residence). 13 Application of exemption to residence comprised of 2 or more lots (other than strata lots) (1) The principal place of residence exemption does not extend to a parcel of residential land that is comprised of 2 or more lots of land, and that is used and occupied by the owner of the lots (or by one of them) as a principal place of residence, unless: (a) the lots are adjoining, and (b) the lots are in the same ownership, and (c) the lots are the site of a single residence (excluding any additional residential occupancy that may be disregarded under clause 4). (1A) Lots are in the same ownership if: (a) the lots are owned by the same person or, if any of the lots are jointly owned, the lots are all jointly owned by the same persons, or (b) each lot is beneficially owned by the same person or, if any of the lots have more than one beneficial owner, each lot is beneficially owned by the same persons (subject to clause 11). (2) For the purposes of this clause: (a) separate lots are not to be regarded as adjoining merely because one lot has a single corner point on its boundary that is common to the boundary of another lot, and (a1) separate lots that are divided by a fence, wall or other structure are not to be regarded as adjoining unless access is readily available between the lots, by means of gates, doors, steps, stiles, elevators or openings or by similar means, and (b) separate buildings erected on separate lots are not to be regarded as a single residence if the buildings are separately occupied or capable of being used for separate occupation. (3) This clause does not apply to land comprised of 2 or more strata lots. 14 Application of exemption to residence comprised of 2 or more lots in a strata plan (1) The principal place of residence exemption does not extend to land that is comprised of 2 or more strata lots, and that is used and occupied by the owner of the lots (or by one of them) as a principal place of residence, unless: (a) the strata lots (excluding any ancillary lot) have adjoining walls or floors, and (b) the strata lots are in the same ownership, and (c) the strata lots comprise a single residence (excluding any additional residential occupancy that may be disregarded under clause 4). (1A) Strata lots are in the same ownership if: (a) the lots are owned by the same person or, if any of the lots are jointly owned, the lots are all jointly owned by the same persons, or (b) each lot is beneficially owned by the same person or, if any of the lots have more than one beneficial owner, each lot is beneficially owned by the same persons (subject to clause 11). (2) For the purposes of this clause, 2 or more strata lots are not to be regarded as comprising a single residence unless there is internal access between all the strata lots (other than any ancillary lot), such as internal connecting doors or internal staircases. (3) In this clause:"ancillary lot" means a strata lot that is used for purposes ancillary to another strata lot and which is not used or adapted for habitation (for example, a garage or storage area).
